Despite the loss, the low-cost airline's revenue for the quarter increased by 14%, reaching Rs 16,970 crore, up from Rs 14,944 crore in the corresponding quarter of the previous fiscal.
Share price of Indigo closed at Rs 4,434.05 per share on the National Stock Exchange, reflecting a rise of 1%. In contrast, the benchmark Nifty fell 1.02%. Over the past 12 months, the stock has increased by 48.56%, and it has fallen 49.44% year-to-date.
